Day 94

Monday, April 4

The Good to Wow prompt this week was:
{up}




 I had some troubles accomplishing my goal... I closed my aperture down as far as it would go and used the fastest shutter speed possible, but still could't get a silhouette. I didn't think about the fact that I had a filter that might have helped until after we were done. It was a little chilly so I was thinking on the fly, trying to keep it to 5 minutes of A being outside. I probably should have planned better, haha. Here are the other shots I have to play with...


Pointers, please??

Oh, and you can see more of the photos I took yesterday here. I just am in love with how they turned out! And I also announced my theme for my Friday feature this week... my 365 friends might like this one! ;-)

  2. Silhouettes are best during the remaining hour of the day and amazing in the last ten to fifteen minutes. That's when you get those amazing colors. Remember the ones I put up? The ones with the richer colors were all taken 15 minutes before sunset. Also meter for the sky, that will help get your subject all black. But these are a great first attempt. It's what mine looked like the first time I tried it out. They're too cute and how funny that this the exact same pose I tried with my DH and DD.

    Sorry I've been so MIA. :( I'm hoping to get caught back up soon! Email me if you'd like tompick my brain more about silhouettes. :)

  4. I love the burst of light you captured. Go over to clickitupanotch.com. Courtney has posted about silhouettes. I think they need to be done during the last hours of the day.
